Oh please. There's literally no proof that she was holding back against Lady at ALL. DMC1 is the proof. Lady said she felt like she was fighting another human but no pure-blood humans can push Dante around or toss motorcycles. Trish could snap Lady like a twig if she really wanted to.

Her "surprise attack" on Dante did not affected him AT all (despite the scream). He laughed at it and then with a few bullets he managed to get upper hand easily and take her down. Surprise attack or not, characters without superhuman strength are not able harm Dante. Trish has able to knock him across the room. Dante also didnt fight her. After she took cover from the motorcycle she ended the fight. It was also not her objective at time to take Dante out, so she didnt engage in a full on fight.

Something like 5 Hell Prides took Dante in a sneak attack and he shrugged it off, and kicked their butts with their own weapons while the were still impaled in his body. This didnt happen when Trish hit him with her lightning.

She had to resort to once again.. a sneak attack during his battle with Nightmare.. and once Nightmare was done, she was done. Using sneak attacks doesnt mean she is weak. She couldnt open the barrier Her attack was strong enough to bring him to the ground. She is a legit threat to him at that point. DMC1 Trish's strength is comparible to DMC1 Dante.

Summoning a giant thunder from the sky is Alastor ability that was shown in cutscene, so that would be a minor upgrade. When Trish teleports she can do so in a bolt of lightning from the sky so minor upgrade.

Meshifuari Arimota wrote:

However that was not my point, my point is that even if Alastor is not capable of doing something and neither is Trish... By combining their powers they might be able to do wayyy more stuff that they couldnt achieve normally. Thunder wave of energy or force field, etc... just examples. These are suppositions you have and there is no evidence that matching character and weapons elements enhances the users abilities in the way you suggest.

Another thing to bring up is...

Trish without a weapon is, for sure, not as strong as you think she is. She doesnt have much feats to begin with (other than shocking Dante twice when he wasnt expecting it and taking down a lot of lesser demons... but hey even Soldier from DMC5 took down a few Empusas). Using lots of bullets. None of the soldiers engaged demons in a melee fight.

You are ignoring 2 things.
 * Dante has one-shooted hunderds of Trishes in DMC Novel that were made by Mundus from different dimension (he was even more powerful than normal Mundus and he managed to defeat Sparda from different dimension)
 * Mundus being more powerful doesnt necessarily mean Trish is more powerful. Also, did you read the novel? How were Dante and Vergil born if Sparda lost?
 * Dante was a whole 6 years older in Novel 2. More power, more experience.
